Delivery Terms

WE OFFER FREE DELIVERY TO ENGLAND, WALES, AND SCOTLAND (BELOW PERTH)

Shipping /delivery is equally as important to us as the item of furniture itself. It is simple; we deliver everything personally in England / Wales so this way we are 100% sure that the item / furniture reaches our customers safe and sound. We NEVER use couriers. Delivery is generally within 7-14 days of purchase. We guarantee delivery anywhere in England / Wales within 21 days of purchase.

Deliveries to Scotland as far north as Perth are guaranteed within 6 weeks of purchase. If delivery is required above Perth in Scotland please contact James on 07957 392 074 or

james@davidhuntantiques.com for a price.

Deliveries are either carried out by David or James as one member of the team is required to stay in the warehouse, therefore we do require assistance from the van into your hallway with the item of furniture. We have set delivery days and once the van is loaded (a day prior to delivery) David will call customers to arrange a two hour delivery time slot. Customers will also receive a text when delivery is 30 minutes away.

It is really helpful if customers can provide their ‘what3words’ location to make delivery as smooth

as possible, especially properties in rural locations.

Ireland Deliveries

We do use a very good courier company called DVM Service to deliver goods to Ireland. We ask the customer to pay this company direct for the delivery charge and we then liaise with DVM regarding collection of a customer’s item of furniture to be shipped to Ireland.

Europe & Rest of the World

We do not ship to Europe or the Rest of the World.

FAQs

A Victorian butchers block is a heavy-duty wooden work surface historically used in commercial butcher shops for preparing meat. Originating in the nineteenth century, these blocks feature dense, end-grain timber construction built to withstand heavy cleaver use.

Traditional butchers blocks were constructed using dense hardwoods such as beech, maple, or oak, often arranged in end-grain sections to prevent timber splitting. These wooden tops were supported by thick timber bases and bound with iron corner brackets or tensioning rods to ensure structural stability.

Authentic antique butchers blocks display pronounced surface wear, natural timber dipping or concavity from repeated chopping, and thick construction with original iron binding straps or bolt fixings. Traditional joinery, substantial weight, and historic painted or scrubbed timber finishes further indicate authenticity.

An antique butchers block works exceptionally well as a central kitchen island or standalone preparation station in contemporary interiors. Pairing the patinated wood and painted timber base with modern cabinetry creates a balanced, layered aesthetic that adds texture to the space.

Maintain the wooden working surface by treating it with food-safe mineral oil or beeswax to prevent timber drying and cracking. The painted base should be wiped with a slightly damp cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that could degrade the original historic finish.
